Insights
Abbott advances cardiac rhythm management with breakthrough device designations and clinical progress for innovative conduction system pacing technologies.
Abbott's announcements represent significant momentum in their cardiac rhythm management portfolio. The successful completion of the world's first feasibility study for their AVEIR Conduction System Pacing (CSP) leadless pacemaker technology demonstrates a novel approach to cardiac pacing. The study verified successful implantation of leadless pacemakers into the interventricular septum, achieving left bundle branch area pacing that mimics natural heart conduction.
The FDA Breakthrough Device Designations for both the AVEIR CSP leadless pacemaker and CSP ICD lead are particularly significant, potentially accelerating regulatory review timelines. This could give Abbott a competitive advantage in bringing these technologies to market.
Strategically, Abbott is pursuing dual technological approaches in this space: both leadless technology and traditional lead-based systems. This two-pronged strategy expands their potential market reach while hedging technological risk.
The initiation of the ASCEND CSP pivotal clinical trial for their ICD lead represents critical progression toward commercialization. The trial will enroll up to 414 patients across 70 global sites to evaluate safety and effectiveness at three months post-implant. Abbott's UltiPace Pacing Lead has already received FDA approval as the first stylet-driven lead indicated for left bundle branch area placement, giving the company an established foundation in this emerging pacing approach.
Conduction system pacing technology could transform cardiac rhythm management by offering more physiologic pacing and potentially better long-term outcomes.
The clinical significance of Abbott's conduction system pacing innovations cannot be overstated. Traditional pacing methods often stimulate the heart from locations that create electrical activation patterns significantly different from normal conduction. This can lead to cardiac dyssynchrony and, over time, pacing-induced cardiomyopathy in some patients.
Left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP) represents a paradigm shift by targeting the heart's natural conduction system. By delivering pacing therapy directly to the left bundle branch area, these devices aim to restore more natural electrical patterns, potentially reducing the risk of heart failure and improving cardiac function. The AVEIR CSP acute feasibility study demonstrated that a leadless pacemaker can successfully achieve this technically challenging placement.
The dual development approach - incorporating both the innovative leadless AVEIR system and the traditional lead-based ASCEND platform - gives clinicians multiple options to address patient-specific needs. Leadless systems eliminate complications associated with transvenous leads such as infection, vascular damage, and lead fractures, while the lead-based approach allows integration with existing ICD systems.
With Breakthrough Device Designations for both technologies, these innovations could reach patients more quickly. While early-stage results are promising, the upcoming pivotal trial data will be crucial in determining whether these technologies can deliver on their potential to transform cardiac pacing therapy with more physiologic stimulation patterns.

The AVEIR CSP acute clinical feasibility study demonstrated successful implantation of the AVEIR CSP leadless pacemaker deep into the wall separating the left and right chambers of the heart, many achieving left bundle branch area pacing (LBBAP). All study participants received the AVEIR ventricular (VR) leadless pacemaker at the end of the procedure.
"For the first time, we have successfully demonstrated the feasibility of a leadless pacing system to facilitate conduction system pacing in the left bundle branch area of the heart, offering a novel approach to pacing therapy," said Vivek Y. Reddy, M.D., director of cardiac arrythmia services at Mount Sinai Hospital,
Conduction Pacing Momentum within Abbott's Cardiac Rhythm Management Portfolio
To maximize potential benefits to patients, Abbott is developing two unique approaches to conduction system pacing, focusing on targeting the LBB area with both traditional pacing and leadless technology.
In addition to completing the AVEIR CSP acute clinical feasibility study, Abbott recently started enrolling the first patients in the ASCEND CSP pivotal clinical trial. This trial will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the investigational CSP Implantable Cardioverter-Defibrillator (ICD) lead three months post-implant and will enroll up to 414 people at up to 70 sites worldwide, including in

"Our ongoing innovation in conduction system pacing has the potential to drive meaningful advancements, offering new potential treatment options for people with slow or irregular heart rhythms," said Randel Woodgrift, senior vice president of Abbott's cardiac rhythm management business. "These two clinical studies underscore the critical importance of conduction system pacing in the left bundle branch area both with our breakthrough leadless technology and uniquely designed lead, enabling physicians to better treat a broader range of patients who require pacemaker and ICD therapies."
